Supplements of Periodicals Shankle, Jean 11 Apr 2006 14:18 UTC

Supplements that come with periodicals are always such a question mark.

How do you all handle the supplements that come with your subscriptions?
Do you check them in with the title or throw them out?

Some periodicals have supplements that are a important part of the
publication, more of a part 2 than a supplement, do you just keep those
and not others?  (For instance, Forbes and MMWR.)

The supplements that are just advertisements sometimes have value for
some majors so we keep those, but how to handle them can be a problem
sometimes.

Is there a source anywhere that indicates what periodical supplements
are indexed in the major periodical indexes or databases? Or do you have
to look each title up individually?

I appreciate the help I always receive from all of you!

Thank you.
Jean
